you want to pull the substrate out of the bottom pan hun. This is an impaction risk with a Veiled.Mine is dark as well had him for about 5 days and i believe about 3-4 months old, ive made quite a lot of changes took all the fake pants out add 2 more plants then moved him to my house today cause my boyfriends house is too cold and too many animals when he was in my car he was a perfect green color just like when we got him but then got dark again when i braught him inside.. i havent seen him bask today and has been on the plant by the bottom mostly but has been very active roaming around and was a hungry boy today gave him about 7 crickets. Its stressing me out that hes so dark still i just hope im not doing anything wrong @Beman helped me a few days ago but i did what he suggested and no change maybe just because hes in a new place and hasnt been a week yet? Ill upload a picture of him home now if that helps View attachment 281274View attachment 281275View attachment 281276View attachment 281277
